[Mailman-Users] Can't run mm_cfg.py

2006-06-01 Thread Carl Fink
Hi.

I'm unable to configure Mailman, because when I edit and run mm_cfg.py
(python ./mm_cfg.py) I get this error:

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File ./mm_cfg.py, line 44, in ?
from Defaults import *
ImportError: No module named Defaults


Well, Defaults.py, Defaults.pyo and Defaults.pyc are sitting right there in
the current directory.  I'm not a Python expert, perhaps that isn't what's
being looked for?

I'm running 2.1.5 under Debian Sarge, using Python 2.3.5.  Any other
information that can help figure this out, please ask.

I have resubscribed to the mailing list, so there's no need to copy me
personally on any answers.  (I think the old custom of summarizing for
mailing lists is finally dead, unfortunately.)  I did search the archive and
found no mention of this problem.

And I'll be very grateful for any assistance.

 Yeah, that all seems a bit strange but if he can stop and 
 successfully restart his qrunners, then the edits are syntactically 
 correct and mailman can at least understand what is there. Whether 
 those edits are then lexically and logically correct is another story 
 altogether.

I actually did restart Mailman, with no errors, and so far it seems to have
taken my changes.  If mm_cfg is just there to be read from, why is it a
script instead of a text file /etc/mailman?

   When the configuration is done in the Python language in a Python 
 script, you can let Python do all the parsing, and do the equivalent 
 of #include in order to pull in all your configuration details.

Fair enough.  Like I wrote, I'm no Python expert.

Thanks.
